Full job description

Position Overview

We are currently seeking candidates for the position of Estimator. Reporting to the Director of Business Development, the Estimator is responsible for independently preparing detailed and accurate cost estimates for residential and commercial new build projects. This role requires strong proficiency in quantity take-offs, blueprint interpretation, and full-scope coordination across insulation, electrical, and HVAC systems.

The position is intended for an estimator who can work with minimal supervision, manage multiple bids simultaneously, and contribute to pricing strategy and cost optimization.

Key Responsibilities:

Estimating & Take-Offs

Independently perform detailed material and labour take-offs from architectural, structural, and MEP drawings
Prepare full cost estimates for residential and commercial new construction projects
Build complete bid packages including scope breakdowns, assumptions, and exclusions
Review drawings and specifications to ensure full scope capture and identify risks or gaps

Plan Interpretation & Scope Coordination

Interpret complex construction drawings and technical specifications
Translate plans into clear, trade-specific scopes for:
Insulation systems (thermal, acoustic, vapour barriers, assemblies)
Electrical systems (rough-in, distribution, and finishes)
HVAC systems (ducting, equipment, and installation scope)
Coordinate across trades to eliminate scope gaps, overlaps, and pricing conflicts
Issue RFIs or clarifications when design information is incomplete or inconsistent

Pricing & Market Analysis

Source, evaluate, and negotiate subcontractor and supplier pricing
Maintain and update internal cost databases and historical pricing benchmarks
Provide input into bid strategy, value engineering, and margin targets
Identify cost-saving opportunities without compromising design intent or compliance

Project Support & Collaboration

Participate in pre-bid meetings, design reviews, and handoff meetings to operations
Work closely with project managers and field teams to ensure estimating accuracy
Support junior estimators with guidance on take-offs and plan interpretation
Contribute to continuous improvement of estimating systems and workflows

Quality & Accuracy

Deliver complete and accurate estimates within deadlines
Conduct self-review of all estimates prior to submission
Ensure consistency across scopes, pricing, and documentation

Qualifications:

2–5 years of estimating experience in residential, commercial, or mixed construction
Strong ability to read and interpret architectural and MEP drawings
Proven experience completing independent quantity take-offs
Working knowledge of insulation, electrical, and HVAC systems
Proficiency with estimating tools (Bluebeam, Excel, PlanSwift, or similar)
Strong analytical skills and attention to detail
Ability to manage multiple bids and deadlines simultaneously
Strong communication skills for coordination with trades and internal teams

While we thank you for your interest in our team, only those who meet the above requirements will be contacted for an interview.
